Okay, you know life is different, or that times are changing. This can easily be measured by certain events that occur in one’s life or the world. For instance, take the Pope getting an iPod. Signs of change? And yet he won’t let Catholic high school sports occur after a certain time on Sundays and not past a certain time during the week. Because he feels that people need to refocus; that we have become too engaged in the current technologies of today.
I love the World. Sometimes.
The Palm Pilot was introduced 10 years ago. And to think now we have Treos (aka Smartphones). Well, it is now 10 years old and very sophisticated for it’s age. At least I think so. Happy Birthday Palm!
I’m too lazy and sore to talk about my first Palm, which I do still have sitting upstairs on my desk waiting to be purged. What do I do with it? Can I sell it on eBay? Would anyone want it? I’ll figure it out sooner or later….
But over time, I am thoroughly thrilled with the smartphone. What would I do without it?
Though I will admit that I don’t know all the ins and outs of PodCasting, from what I do know, it’s awesome.
I am one that would not have minded becoming a very hip and amazing disc jockey. Seeing that those plans went by the wayside, and I kick myself for not being a part of my undergrad’s radio station, I think that PodCasting would suit me.
I made one small attempt to share this revelation with my Man. He gave me the Weird Look and changed the topic to something more pertinent to our current lifestyle. I couldn’t argue with him…it does come across as being a bit odd. While he is trying to become accustomed to the new Tech World that exists, he is more laidback and not as excited: “Honey, we can have our own quasi radio show?!” To which I get: “Mmmm…….”
Right. I had that same conversation with him when I told him I wanted an iPod. I still do not have one. That’s for another time, though…
So, I love to read how more and more folks across the world are becoming connected thru PodCasting whether they know it or not. Hell, there is even a “PodCasting for Dummies” book out there….I mean, do we not have a revolution or what?
So when I read this article on parents helping the world out, I thought it was a great thing: Parents Get Together Via iPod ‘Radio’
Maybe this Tech thing is going to make our lives a bit less stressful. At least the intentions are there.
Perhaps one day I will be allowed to tamper with my dream from a former life of being a DJ. I’m just not making any promises.
